Examples of aver in a Sentence

1. Elbert Hubbard:

   Truth, in its struggles for recognition, passes through four distinct stages. First, we say it is damnable, dangerous, disorderly, and will surely disrupt society. Second, we declare it is heretical, infidelic and contrary to the Bible. Third, we say it is really a matter of no importance either one way or the other. Fourth, we aver that we have always upheld it and believed it.

2. Peter Marks:

   We'll have to see where this all interacts. Is it possible we're going to need a booster at some point ? Yes. Is it probable ? Yes. Do we know exactly when ?
